The Shining: Forward and Backward

1980 | 146 minutes

In 2011, The Spectacle Theater in Brooklyn screened The Shining forwards and backwards simultaneously, superimposed  an experiment in projection inspired by an analysis of the film that opined: The Shining is a film meant to be watched both forwards and backwards. We thought it sounded cool, so were doing it, too. Once youve seen Room 237, you will need to see this.
